Millions of Americans speculate that Joe Biden came in 4th or 5th and that either communist Bernie Sanders of Podunk town Mayor Pete came in at the top. Therefore, Troy Price- chair of the IA Democratic Party- is doing everything possible to find more caucus results from outhouses and condemned buildings to flip the votes to CHOMO Joe Biden. Disaster strikes again. And the Democrats claim Donald Trump and the Republicans stole an election! WTF! Then, some results trickled out that showed Mayor Pete (26.9%) first followed by Sanders (25.1%) followed by Liz Warren (18.3%) followed by Joe Biden (15.6%) followed by Amy Klobuchar (12.6%). The political dead were Andrew Yang (1.0%), Tom Steyer (less than 1%), Uncommitted (less than 1%), Michael Bloomberg (less than 1%) and Tulsi Gabbard (less than 1%).

Now, I like a good rabble rouser as much as anyone does but Bernie, folks, I simply am not ‘feeling the Bern.’ I am a liberal fellow as is my wife, Nadia, but we own property, have a business, we donate to liberal causes and charities but I don’t want some distant apparatchik in Washington, D.C., taxing us out of existence to pay for all this FREE stuff for non-producers like dope heads and non-citizens. When did that become part of being a Democrat?

THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CULINARY POLITICS-ELEMENTAL NEWS OF THE DAY COMMENTARY-OPINION-SPORTS-FOOD SERVICE FOR SATURDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2019 BY CHEF ROLAND CARL DAVIS, EDITOR

“JTF: As every saucier knows, reduction leads to the ultimate sauce so using these principles on our Democratic candidates leaves us with Klobuchar, Bloomberg, and Howard Schultz- if he would reconsider” by Chef Roland Carl Davis

FALL SESSION 2019

PEARL HARBOR DAY—NEVER FORGET!

BLOG POST #3,324 AT THE AICP-END

334 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY 2020

Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty and talk about WHO has a chance in our party to win and WHY

Arvin, CA 93203, 12-07-2019 Saturday: Yesterday, I started updating our look at the various nominees seeking to lead our party to victory and by the time I concluded my post, we found ourselves left with Amy Klobuchar, Joe Biden, and Bernie Sanders, the only three left from my commentary six months ago, as well as three new ones, Tom Steyer, Deval Patrick, and Michael Bloomberg (as well as one who never really entered the race, Howard Schultz, the Starbucks magnate).

Considering that the others I mentioned yesterday- such as Liz Warren, the inauthentic woman with pie in the sky dreams of forcing EVERY American onto some sort of far-left, soul-killing, one-size-fits-all health care plan (as well as setting our nation back by ending all reliance on fossil fuels) or Kamala Harris who is already gone or Liz who will soon be, all we have left from the original pack are Amy, Joe, and Bernie.

Now, I like a good rabble rouser as much as anyone does but Bernie, folks, I simply am not ‘feeling the Bern.’ I am a liberal fellow as is my wife, Nadia, but we own property, have a business, we donate to liberal causes and charities but I don’t want some distant apparatchik in Washington, D.C., taxing us out of existence to pay for all this FREE stuff for non-producers like dope heads and non-citizens. When did that become part of being a Democrat?

This is the thing that is irking me, half the party remains the liberal faithful while the once submerged uber-far-left, i.e., the socialists and the communists, have bubbled up from the bottom and now purport to be the ‘mainstream’ of the party. They aren’t.

Now, Tom Steyer, latecomer to the race, is a sham guy. He acts as though he is a BIG ENVIRONMENTALIST but the scum made his money on eradicating thousands of acres of koala bear habitat in Australia so he could mine billions of dollars-worth of coal as well as on privatized prisons- something NO conscientious Democrat at any level can or would ever accept- he should be a damned Republican.

Oh, he talks a good game, wants to impeach #45 which is all well and good but most all of us- and many Republicans, too, to give them a nod- want to see this worthless, crooked POS gone so woo-woo, there, Tommy old boy. I predict this guy will be out of the race by the time we pick up again and the good thing is in the last debate, Joe Biden called him out on his coal-derived wealth to which the stunned phony had no answer.

Then, former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick entered the race and while he might be a good guy, capitalist and all, very few people know him and what’s more if they did, they wouldn’t care. For a black gentleman, he comes off as extremely vanilla to me and no one is going to give him a shot- unless it’s between HIM and Bernie.

Then, we have Michael Bloomberg, a man of enormous wealth, he makes #45 look like a street urchin, a pauper, a beggar, and the guy has a certain amount of class. He will have to get past ‘stop and frisk’ as well as trying to micromanage New Yorkers’ lives by restricting the size of sodas they could guzzle, the straws they no longer can use to enjoy them, or telling every restaurant in New York City that they could not put salt shakers on the damned tables. That, my friends, is plain f**king insane.

The question is with a President Bloomberg, will we have dietary police inspecting every restaurant and fining us restaurant owners and operators if we provide salt to our guests? Will they behave like the morality police of Iran or Saudi Arabia or any other Third World despotic hellhole of a country by taking food service operators out and giving them public canings? I would hope not because if so, I think we will witness riots from one end of the country to the other because we don’t want to live in a nanny state.

I am going to say something you might find surprising is that Howard Schultz, well, he did not look so bad. Personally, the more capitalism the better because our goal as a political party should be in lifting everyone UP instead of trying to bring everyone DOWN. That makes no sense and it is never going to bring us victory. Besides, who the f**k wants to be ‘Venezuela?’

All that remains is Senator Klobuchar, D-Minn. Now, they say she can be bitchy and is hard to work with or for, well, she sort of looks like someone who demands results and expects them as quickly as possible. I like her and I believe she could be the one. Here is something I said about her earlier in the year:

“I like Senator Klobuchar, I think she is a solid candidate, one who could be a sleeper in the race. While the others battle it out in the upcoming debates, as along as she can hold her own and be on topic when the questions fly her way, she will be able to move on and then launch a hefty attack on the remnants who survive the first couple of debates.” (Davis, 22-June-2019)

Right now, the nuts are battling for supremacy. The next debate features Joe Biden, Liz Warren, Amy Klobuchar, Tom Steyer, Bernie Sanders, and Pete Buttigieg. This one will take place on December 19, 2019 and should be among the best as it features the least number of debaters yet. However, I am not sure if anyone else can get in before then or not. It would be a shame for Tulsi Gabbard not to be included.

I think it is going to the ultimate bloodletting as I will predict now that Steyer will be gone as will Liz Warren, and sadly, maybe Joe Biden, too. I love the guy but him talking about black kids playing in his lap (surprised he didn’t call them pickaninnies, thank God for small favors) and rubbing his leg hair all the while he’s sucking Dr. Jill’s finger in front of a crowd but what the hell is going on in his attic?

Meanwhile, Deval Patrick will flit about on the outside, disappearing as quickly as he entered (Obama loses yet again) while Michael Bloomberg continues acting like an independent and not a Democrat. Still, if our choices are between Bernie and Bloomberg, Bloomberg will get my vote- hands down.

Friends let’s remember our brave dead from the attack on Pearl Harbor, what- 78 frigging years ago- amazing. If I make it to 2039, I could see the 100th anniversary of the start of World War II…now, that would be something.

See you tomorrow for my final post of the year. Next year…next year will be Armageddon, folks.

The Zombies, dead and buried, yet their record company put out the next of what would be the next of many compilation albums. “The Decca Stereo Anthology,” came out on November 11, 2002 and it featured a succinct collection of 48 vital tracks, some of which appeared on singles as well as on their first two albums plus more rediscovered/uncovered musical tidbits. While you might only find it on CD if you search the web, you sure as heck can find it on wax so visit your favorite record store and consider adding it to your collection- you will be you did.

Today’s Mothers of Invention album is their twenty-third album, “Playground Psychotics,” which appeared on record store shelves on October 27, 1992 and was another exciting look at the heyday of the Mothers. Over the course of Frank Zappa’s life, he went back and forth between working with the original Mothers and then with various lineups in between. This is one of the better collections of nothing but the best. We recommend that you take the link posted above, go to Amazon.com, and buy this album NOW. Thank you.

Paul Rodgers released his next album, “Cut Loose,” on October 15, 2011. This album originally came out in 1983 and was the artist’s first official solo album. The singer played all the instruments and did an admirable job. Rodgers also wrote all 10 songs and they remain to this day as some of his all-time best compositions. We hope you will visit Amazon.com where you can pick it up in the format, the condition, and the price that works best for you. You can thank us later.

[i] Not sure when we present this Canadian rock band, Loverboy, but we sure as heck hope we do sometime within the next decade because- say what you will about them- they are as exciting today as they were back in the 1980s. Please remain vigilant for the day that we do.

[ii] We hope to offer the music of Alice Cooper one day so please keep posted until we do. We think you will appreciate them, especially the original band.

[iii] When the hell is President Trump going to pardon this poor son-of-a-bitch?

[iv] We presented the music of this British prog-rock band, the amazing King Crimson, beginning on Monday, 20-October-2014 through Sunday, 21-December-2014. We hope you will check them out and add them to your collection.

[v] We hope to present the music of the Nice as well as Emerson, Lake & Palmer at some point within the next five years. Please remain posted for the day that we do.

Now, we all recall how Congressman Nadler blew it with Robert S. Mueller III and his ‘Russian-collusion hoax.’ As I recall, Nadler took first crack in the morning session and then the doddering old goat (Mueller) stumbled over to Schiff’s committee for- as I recall- closed door hearings which was probably for the best because I bet Schiff did not do much better. At least the embarrassment was not public.

“Many Democrats are already surrendering to the idea that Michael Bloomberg might be ‘it’ which should tell you everything you need to know about what they think about the rest of their ‘lineup’” by Chef Pedro Muňoz

FALL SESSION 2019

BLOG POST #3,318 AT THE AICP-END

340 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY 2020

Even if Trump is not on the ticket, Pence will win the landslide in his place, hence why the Dems are going after everyone in the administration…

San Diego, CA 92122, 12-01-2019 Sunday: Buenos días amigos, welcome to what will be my final post of the year and then like everyone else, we will meet again sometime come May 2020 or so. It is always rather fascinating to look ahead six months as we write approximately twice a year because when you are as old as I am, you never know if you will wake up the next day, LOL. Although a joke, to be a good joke, it must have a kernel of truth locked away in it for it to be humorous and to elicit laughs.

Next week, Congressman Jerrold Nadler, D-NY, takes another whack at the apple, hosting the impeachment hearings in the House Judiciary Committee where they should have been held from the very start although I think House Speaker Nancy Pelosi decided to go with Congressman Adam Schiff’s House Intelligence Committee over Nadler’s. She did this because of the two veteran lawmakers, I think she convinced herself that Schiff was better equipped mentally to give it the old school try. He and thus she failed.

Now, we all recall how Congressman Nadler blew it with Robert S. Mueller III and his ‘Russian-collusion hoax.’ As I recall, Nadler took first crack in the morning session and then the doddering old goat (Mueller) stumbled over to Schiff’s committee for- as I recall- closed door hearings which was probably for the best because I bet Schiff did not do much better. At least the embarrassment was not public.

This upcoming week, we are going to witness the doldrums of Democratic hopes as Jerry Nadler is going to attempt to come up with coherent articles of impeachment- if Schiff has not already written them up and is going to pass them off to his old buddy- so he can resurrect his part in the ongoing fiasco and attempt to rehabilitate whatever shred of credibility remaining to him from his previous disaster.

I think if Speaker Pelosi was ‘on the ball’ instead of the incoherent, searching-for-words-loser that she is, she might smell the coffee and determine which way the wind is blowing and other than for a small overly-vocal mini-minority, it is not blowing in the direction that she hopes. It is rather like a wind blowing over the county dump and all one can smell is the stench of refuse, crap, and garbage.

Those of us who live in California truly wish our politicians would come home and do the work of the people of our state rather than to take us for granted as the entire Democratic Party takes us minorities. We need someone to do something about the hobos defecating on the sidewalks and to remove the homeless encampments that seem to sprout like toxic toadstools all over the place.

No one wants to walk around piles of festering fecal matter all over the place much less skid off the sidewalks and into the gutters because of slimy, wet, patches of urine. No one wants aggressive panhandlers pursuing one for 3-4 blocks demanding spare change, and no one wants to see addicts collapsed in doorways or alleyways, drool running down their chins and into their laps, it is not the way the world should be nor should it ever be- not if we are supposed to be the eighth largest economy in the world.

One day, the people of the dying cities of California are going to rise up and there is only going to be one direction for them to go. They are going to storm the mansions of scum such as Maxine Waters, they are going to leap over the walls of the Pelosi estate, they are going to storm into the gaudy, gilded mansions of the Democratic elites and are going to carry them out, toss them about, and then string them upside-down from the lampposts.

I do not wish this outcome for anyone; however, when you neglect people the way the California Democrats do, it is the inevitable outcome and I must say, a much deserved and just one.

Now, I only have my gut to go on but I believe 2020 is going to be one of those elections where the people of our country are going to make their feelings clear, extremely clear, to the ruling class neglecting them and their concerns.

The Dems have only themselves to blame for they are the ones who worked long and hard to create an unhinged base that no longer will accept any rational explanations about anything. Hence why people like Bernie Sanders and Liz Warren (and others of their ilk) are doing so well. Hence why people like Michael Bennett, Steve Bullock, John Delaney, and other more reasonable, moderate ones cannot get a moment’s notice anywhere.

Some Democrats seem okay with Michael Bloomberg entering the race, it’s almost as if they can ‘accept him’ because the other ones are absolutamente loco and will only destroy the party. I saw that poor sap, Robert De Niro accepting the idea Bloomberg might be ‘it’ because compared with the others, they think (pray) he will be able to beat President Trump and to bring about normalcy once again.

Personally, I think Bloomberg’s strategy of going after Super Tuesday instead of trying to compete in ALL primary states is as bonkers as was Rudy Giuliani’s ‘Florida strategy’ back in 2008. Bloomberg stands as much chance as Tom Steyer at winning the nomination and Steyer has ZERO chance at becoming vice president much less president.

Amigos, the Democrats are going to fail. The question is, HOW MUCH are they going to fail? We will meet again in mid-2020 and will reassess our odds but I am banking on a 48-49 state landslide victory NOT in their favor. Unless something changes so completely that Trump is not on the ticket, I cannot foresee what that might be; however, if something did happen to Trump, Pence would win the landslide because unless the Dems go with a sane candidate, their chances of winning are ZIP.

Have a wonderful Christmas, a delightful New Year’s Eve, and we will be back in action before you know it- good Lord looking out for me. Remain positive as that is all we have- siendo positivo ya que es todo lo que tenemos.

SPECIAL ALBUMS OF THE DAY:

We hope you will seek this one out and consider adding it to your collection by visiting Amazon.com and picking it up there in the format, the condition, and the price that works best for you- you will be glad you did.

WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK OUR PATRONS AND BENEFACTORS FOR KEEPING US UP AND RUNNING…THANK YOU.

“JTF: Democrats should know the longer the coup attempt against Trump continues the more at risk the entire presidency of Barack Obama and whatever ‘presidential legacy’ remains to him” by Chef Lilah Paulikovich

FALL SESSION 2019

BLOG POST #3,297 AT THE AICP-END

361 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY 2020

There is little to no question that Barack Obama was not a legal president and so should be struck from the history books…

Kula, HI 96790, 11-10-2019 Sunday: Friends, today is my final post of the year and all I can say is, ‘woo-hoo!’ We are fast approaching the Thanksgiving holiday and if you have never celebrated the holidays on Maui, well, Eric and I invite you all to come. We think Hawaii has the absolute best Christmas celebrations in the entire United States, second ONLY to the Philippines on the planet. If you have never spent the Christmas holidays in Manila, well, all I can say is you haven’t seen anything until you’ve seen them there.

I think our entire week has been an eventful one, what with the exposure of the fabled ‘whistleblower,’ who in reality is little more than a devious, underhanded, scumbag leaker– of hearsay, no less. Eric Ciaramella is a tool, one put in place by former CIA Director John Brennan[i], the man who looks more like a jungle ape with overhanging brow, eyes setback in his skull, fleshy cheeks and jowls hanging down, a repulsive character to say the least, and highly indicative of the types of low-life losers that Barack Hussein Obama had around him while he was our president. What a disgrace.

We Trump supporters have had to suffer all manner of insults, invective, and hate speech so it is extremely delightful that the longer the Democrats continue talking stink about us, the more evidence comes to light that every move on the chessboard has been executed by the scum surrounding then-President Barack Hussein Obama.

From the very beginning of Donald Trump winning the presidency, the coup has been in motion. From the coordinated ‘women’s marches’ around the country and the world, to the days of rage in which deranged anti-Trumpers took to the streets and railed against the injustice of it all, we have had to suffer the insults and the anger that these volatile, unbalanced nuts have thrown our way. Enough is enough, already. YOU lost, WE won, so shut the heck up.

The time is coming when we hope that Bill Barr and John Durham release the report that will shut these evildoing scum up, will put them down for the count. We want to see everyone surrounding former President Obama- from his Veep Joe Biden to James Clapper, to the apelike John Brennan, to Sally Yates, John Koskinen, to Loretta Lynch, to Eric Holder, to Samantha Power, we want to see ALL of these people on trial and fighting for their very lives.

Someone else no one mentions much anymore but should would be Barack Obama’s number one advisor, Valerie Jarrett. IF anyone was essential in setting this coup in motion, I suspect that she was the one who helped orchestrate this mess.

Many doubt that President Obama possesses sufficient gray matter[ii] to orchestrate a targeted hit against Donald J. Trump, but that Ms. Jarrett, Iranian-born hater of this country, did. She would be the one who would have worked long and hard to destroy Donald Trump, merely because he possessed the hutzpah to question the ‘birth story’ of the 44th president.

Here is what I said this past Wednesday on this very topic:

“Everyone understands WHY President Obama hates Mr. Trump because the New York billionaire (well, soon to be Florida billionaire) questioned his predecessor’s citizenship. Any time someone questions the origins of Mr. Obama, the news media and the left-wing establishment comes down atop them like a load of red-hot bricks, squashing and squishing the life out of them because to put forth questions as to the whereabouts of the 44th president’s birthplace is to be both a racist and a hater.” (Paulikovich, 06-November-2019)

I think that the longer this sham impeachment investigation continues, the more we must make it known that the entire presidency of the previous president is at risk. The Democrats must understand that sufficient proof exists that the 44th president may have been wholly incapable as well as unqualified of running for that office simply because he was not born in the United States as his amended birth certificate[iii] claims he was.

IF the Democrats persist in trying to re-litigate the 2016 Presidential Election as we are less than a year out from the NEXT presidential election, a time when they might possibly beat him provided the Dems field a worthy candidate instead of the losers (other than Tulsi Gabbard) they now have, then we will pursue destroying the presidency of the 44th president and will send his fellow coup-plotters to prison- for decades to come.

I hope when the Barr-Durham report hits, that the Democrats will scatter for the woodwork like the cockroaches they are and note, in Hawaii, cockroaches[iv] have wings. We will stamp them out using DDT or any other toxic substance to quash the infestation.

The fact that Michael Bloomberg[v] says he is going to register for the Alabama primary race where he says he will run as a Democrat should tell you something. Whether you like or laugh at the guy, he at least, is sane and not a nut like the rest of them (again, Tulsi aside).

Well, that is going to do it for me. I believe Murph comes in tomorrow so give her the big warm aloha hug we all like to give one another. We are going to reclaim our country from these Democrats and we hope to do it from 2020 onward. Please help us.

Have a great Thanksgiving, a wonderful Christmas, and God willing, we will meet again in about six months, smack dab in the midst of an election year. Aloha.

I began working at the Maui Prince Hotel back in the 1970s. I apprenticed under some of the best European chefs back in the day and met Stinkbug, our mentor, on Maui in 1990. Presently, I am working up in Kula at one of the restaurants high up on Haleakala—it is a glorious life. The facsimiles you see of me were created by the famed up-and-coming, Bakersfield, California, street artist, the fabulous Simone. Thank you so much for the uh, beautiful likeness of me, your beloved pau hana host.

[i] Is not this man the perfect example of Soviet-style thug? He seems like he would fit in perfectly with Lavrentiy Beria’s KGB. Perhaps his father was a KGB thug? Maybe that’s why Barack Obama chose the bum.

[ii] Many speculate that Barack Obama is as dumb as a box full of lava rocks and that the Dems chose him because they could manipulate him into doing whatever they asked of him to do. I side with this line of thinking.

[iii] Too many questions remain about Obama’s birth certificate and I, for one, believe there should be an asterisk placed beside his name in all U.S. history and political science textbooks.

[iv] Cockroaches in Hawaii are big and possess wings. Enter a dark room, flip on the overhead light and they begin flying all about the room. It takes outsiders some time to get used to tropical roaches.

[v] If I had to vote for a Democrat, I would vote for Bloomberg but I don’t. I will be voting for President Donald J. Trump.
